Cool.. now figure out if your taxes are going to be less if you have a Rm3000 tax relief. If not then it makes no difference right? smile.gif

3% of RM3k = RM90
7% of RM3k = RM210
12% of RM3k = RM360

I Agree.
I don't agree.

There is actually something new. Tax relief for 10 years, and if compounded annually until you're 55, the annualized return rate will cover the Management Expense Ratio (1.5%) and Sales Load (3%).

In other words, PRS is Unit Trust without fees  thumbup.gif ! (and without liquidity  sad.gif  )

A smart investor will know that fund fees is the number 1 drag to your long term fund return relative to the market returns.

I have done the calculations. You can download the excel spreadheet --> Download Excel Spreadsheet from this Post

Example scenario:

If I'm 35 years old, and my tax rate is 26%. I contribute RM 3000 for 10 years (only) to take advantage of the tax relief.

Assuming the PRS fund has 0% returns (that means no profit, no loss), then my Annual Compounded Interest is 1.95% until 55 years old. This is enough to cover for the "Yearly" Management Expense Ratio (1.5% of your total fund value) and Sales "Front" Load (3%).

Nowadays is much more common than you think.. mid level managers (~10-15 years experience) working in KL MNC can easily hit that amount....

Also Year-end Bonus is taxable...

if i not remember wrongly, our per capita income is abt 28k p.a.

the illustration of the 1.95% seems only for a small group of ppl.
